Haus und Garten. Erster Supplementband zu den sechs Büchern vom Bauen. OSTENDORF Friedrich [24883]

Haus und Garten.

Published: Berlin, Wilhelm Ernst,
Date: 1914.
Description: 583pp, including 422 drawings ( by the author) and diagrams, many double-page, some being fold-outs. Cloth. 27x19. Old German name sticker, spine rebacked, professionally repaired, cloth edges a little rubbed, a good tight copy and contents very good.
Notes: Lovely Arts & Crafts-style survey of the best ideas for superior house and garden designs. Interiors are included. Ostendorf (1871-1915) wrote extensively on the traditional crafts and skills of medieval architecture. He designed university and other public buildings. Stylistically he was close to the ideas of Schulze-Naumburg and Schmitthenner, seeing architecture as mainly an expression of organic and natural rules.
